Verden Allen's Soft Ground - Love You & Leave You - 2013
from uponmusic.com
Verden Allen, the founding member of once so popular rock band Mott The Hoople is back in the studio now to record a new album with a full band sound, Love You & Leave You, which was released on February 11 through the Angel Air Records. Actually, the record consists not of the new material, but of Allen’s re-worked tracks, recorded together with his band Soft Ground.
The newly released album still contains Allen’s organ, but unlike his solo album tracks with that somewhat rougher and more “basic” sound, Love You & Leave You sounds a bit fleshed out and a little more textured. But of course, both versions are simply excellent, in its own way each. The driving force of the album is the riff work of Jamie Thyer and of course Allen’s Hammond organ. They are just like yin and yang. The spine of the quartet is Rob Hankins’ bass with Matt Blakout from Tigertailz on drums.
The opening track Love You & Leave You introduces rather tragicomic lyrics about the lost lover and as a result, the lost liver. Well, Verden Allen has always been a master-wordsmith. But the musical arrangement of the track doesn’t fire up at once, but only leads you into the flavour of the whole album.
The next track, On the Rebound, includes Allen’s organ skills in full, exuding some kind of baroque cool, making the song very catchy.
A rock ballad, Find Yourself, represents Allen’s typical nasal voice in the foreground, accompanied by the dominant guitar riffs.

Only, o áudio não funciona. Já coloquei o player desse Kiwi e não deu muito certo: às vezes funcionava, às vezes não. Uma dica: vai neste aqui:

Sem frescura, sem cadastro, nem nada. Seleciona a música, espera baixar e pega o código na opção "Click here to visit the download page": copia o texto que está em "Embed Code" e cola embaixo da música no blogger, na opção editar. Prontinho. Não precisa ajustar altura, largura, nada. Dá uma olhada como é que fica lá no meu blog, na postagem de hoje da Asteroid B-612. A outra opção, boa também, mas com cadastro, é a DivShare. Mas sou mais a primeira. Um abraço.
Assim?
